    For pads I use Sisal for 80-120 then switch to Sewn for 180-Emory then Loose for the Stainless - Chrome...

    Hand sanding is a technique all in of itself..

    Here are some old threads to look at...

    The Red Imp restore is one you should really look at if you want to see a bad razor brought back by hand sanding...

    Hope those give you some ideas....
